It’s 1942 and on the Aleutian Islands off Alaska, two young Americans must evade capture by Axis soldiers. Will they survive through the winter?

Told in alternating chapters, this middle grade novel follows 11-year-old Izzy and 14-year-old Matt as they find a way to put aside their differences and work together after their parents and neighbors are relocated to camps in Japan and they are left alone. With a long winter ahead of them, the pair will have to watch out for Axis soldiers and Allied bombing raids–and keep the village dog from giving them away.

Newbery Honor-winner Patricia Reilly Giff has crafted a thrilling story of survival and cooperation set during a little-known episode in World War II, perfect for fans of historical fiction.
